An exploration of changes in plantar pressure distributions during walking with standalone and supported lateral wedge insole designs

open access: yesJournal of Foot and Ankle Research, 2021
Background Lateral wedge insoles (LWI), standalone or with medial arch support (supported‐LWI), have been thoroughly investigated for their effects on modifying gait biomechanics for people with knee osteoarthritis. However, plantar pressure distribution

WAVELET ANALYSIS OF PROTEIN MOTION [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Wavelets, Multiresolution and Information Processing, 2012
As high-throughput molecular dynamics simulations of proteins become more common and the databases housing the results become larger and more prevalent, more sophisticated methods to quickly and accurately mine large numbers of trajectories for relevant information will have to be developed.

Development of Lower Extremity Strength in Ambulatory Children With Bilateral Spastic Cerebral Palsy in Comparison With Typically Developing Controls Using Absolute and Normalized to Body Weight Force Values

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2021
This cross-sectional study aimed to examine the development of lower limb voluntary strength in 160 ambulatory patients with bilateral spastic cerebral palsy (CP) (106 diplegics/54 quadriplegics) and 86 typically developing (TD) controls, aged 7–16 years.

HOB-CNN: Hallucination of occluded branches with a convolutional neural network for 2D fruit trees

open access: yesSmart Agricultural Technology, 2023
Orchard automation has attracted the attention of researchers recently due to the shortage of global labor force. To automate tasks in orchards such as pruning, thinning, and harvesting, a detailed understanding of the tree structure is required. However,

Seeing motion and apparent motion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In apparent motion experiments, participants are presented with what is in fact a succession of two brief stationary stimuli at two different locations, but they report an impression of movement. Philosophers have recently debated whether apparent motion

Effects of Robot-Assisted Therapy on Gait Parameters in Pediatric Patients With Spastic Cerebral Palsy

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2021
Background: Gait dysfunction is a crucial factor that restricts independence and quality of life in children with cerebral palsy (CP). Gait training based on robotic-assisted therapy (RAT) is widely used, but information about effectiveness and ideal ...

Analysing Acceleration for Motion Analysis [PDF]

open access: yes2017 13th International Conference on Signal-Image Technology & Internet-Based Systems (SITIS), 2017
Previous research in motion analysis of image sequences has generally not considered the basic nature of higher orders of motion such as acceleration. In this work, we disambiguate different types of motion, and in particular focus on acceleration.

A singular value approach for humanoid motion analysis and simulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We are interested in human motion characterization and automatic motion simulation. The apparent redundancy of the humanoid w.r.t its explicit tasks lead to the problem of choosing a plausible movement in the framework of redundant kinematics.

Intramuscular Pressure of Tibialis Anterior Reflects Ankle Torque but Does Not Follow Joint Angle-Torque Relationship

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2018
Intramuscular pressure (IMP) is the hydrostatic fluid pressure that is directly related to muscle force production. Electromechanical delay (EMD) provides a link between mechanical and electrophysiological quantities and IMP has potential to detect local
